Can't really say why other than I was going to buy a 'Train, then the Bones came out. Just like the look I guess. Can't go wrong with either one can you?

If the Sceamin Eagle Fat Bob is an option for you then buy that, otherwise go with the Night Train, It looks meaner.

My vote would be the Train. But YOU are the one who has to be happy with whatever you decide. Try them both and decide. Just my 2....
